Remembrances of Things Past
 
Paris Monuments by Arrondissement
Paris Monuments are found throughout the City. The history of Paris is rich with events and personalities providing a multitude of opportunities for creating these remembrances of things past. You will discover these reminders, great and small, from the grandeur of the Arc de Triomphe and the smaller Arc de Triomphe du Carrousel, to the simplicity of the plaques in the wall of the Tuileries Garden, commemorating the heroism of resistance fighters during the German occupation of Paris. Paris Monuments can be found on any small street where you may see a plaque on a building stating that Jean-Paul Sartre lived there, that Pablo Picasso painted here, that Oscar Wilde died here or a plaque claiming that Ernest Hemingway caught pigeons in that park. You may find yourself looking at such Paris attractions as the Colonne de Julliet in the Place de la Bastille, or the Conciergerie on the Ile de la Cité, pondering the events that have taken place at these sites. These historical places and monuments can provide a theme for your walks around Paris. You may, for example, visit the ancient sites of Roman ruins, such as the Arena of Lutece and the Roman Baths at the National Museum of the Middle Ages. Visiting any of these monuments can be included to make a Walking Tour tailored to what you want to see. If you would like a Private Guide, use our Guided Tour Contact Page.
